"I Told You I'm No Idiot."

Chapter 31

"I can't believe I did that. I mean, that's never happened to me before. I don't act like that. Ever." Donovan whispers to most likely himself in the dark, but I listen anyway. I shift slightly and he curls me tighter into his embrace. I grab onto his forearm and kiss it gently.

"I've never seen you act like that. It was shocking that you were so forthcoming about our little secret." I say, smiling softly and his prickly legs rub against mine underneath his comforter.

He chuckles deeply, "Yeah... but why does it sound like you're pleased about it?" He holds me tighter against him, "You like that I'm so keen on keeping you, don't you?" He asks in a sing song voice and then starts to tickle my sides. I shriek quietly and wriggle around, trying to get away from him, but he grips my hands in one of his and tortures me with his free one, "Admit it and this will all be over, Zaria."

I try to keep in my scream as it's around one in the morning, "No! I-I d-didn't!" I cry out, but he moves down lower and starts to tickle me on the inside of my thighs. I scream quickly, "Okay! Okay! I liked it! I liked it!" I choke out between laughter; happy tears rolling down my face. I can't see his face in the pitch black room, but I can hear our heavy breathing.

"Damn right you did." He breathes as he falls down beside me. I turn my head where I feel his breath hitting my neck and he sighs, "I really am sorry though. I love you so much and I always found you attractive, then Zach started crushing and I wasn't having it. He needed to be shut down and I was the only one who could do it. No one else knew at the time. I will try not to be so reckless as I was at the party tonight... Well, yesterday night or whatever."

His heavy arm drapes across my body and he groans tiredly as his face drops into the crease of my neck. I let out a deep breath, trying to remain calm and collected, but then his lips start softly pecking my neck, "You are so fucking gorgeous. All of you; from your blonde hair to your powder blue eyes -- beautiful. I get nervous sometimes when dealing with you because I don't want to make the wrong move and fuck it all up. Damn, I'm hooked bad. No way I'm getting off this line alive." He husks out.

"Donovan..." I trail off; no longer able to resist my closing eyes. He hums at me in response and I speak on a whisper, "Goodnight and I love you so much. Thanks for claiming me tonight -- it was hot."

Last I hear is his deep, sexy chuckle before he kisses me once more and allows me to drift off; safe and warm in his embrace.

-Next Morning-

Rising up from unconsciousness, I scissor my legs back and forth trying to find a comfortable position for them to wake up in. I feel thick arms tighten around me as I move and then I freeze as I feel another thick object... but it presses up against me. I widen my eyes, afraid to move any further -- or closer in this case.

"Um... Donovan?" I hiss softly. Bad idea. He groans groggily; awaking from his sleep and presses up against me. I feel everything and all of him, right down to his thick morning excitement. Of course I've felt it when he's stayed in my room and other times when I've stayed in his room, but this is by far the worse it's been -- and the hardest.

He seems to catch himself, because he kisses my neck; unaware that his hips have started to swivel on their own, "Shit." He splutters in a groan and then tears himself away from me. I quickly turn my head over to see his hands adjusting under the comforter. He looks over at me sheepishly, "I've been um, a little sexually aroused lately. You can't entirely blame me, because you're more than half of the problem."
